The Pet Shop Boys played two sold out nights in the Bord Gais Energy Theatre on September 5th. I covered the first of the two shows for The Thin Air. I honestly didn't think photo passes would be granted, I was told by another photographer that they denied them on their last visit. I was allowed to shoot the first four songs, which gave me a chance to do two songs from each side of the theatre. It was to be a Front of House shoot but there is no access to FOH due to the seating set up in the theatre.

The band had good visuals in the background but the head-wear was a little distracting when trying to get a shot of them at the right time. By the fourth song Chris Lowe removed his headpiece and this gave me a last minute or two to try and catch him in action. At that stage they were lit by red lights which is never a favourite. All in all it was another classic band added to my list of photographed bands, which is never a bad thing.
